Gruss von Berlin, Again!

Kicking it back at my place in Mitte. Just did a bunch of editing for an Austrian friend. Business stuff, fixing up the grammar and flow. It's a very interesting project which has already cleared a few hurdles, so I hope my work can improve it and help some more. It would be gratifying to have it all work out. Then maybe I could consider doing editing like that sometimes for CASH!!! That would be sweeeeeet.
Otherwise, my feet are really cold and my mind is in the twilight one. Feel good physically, but have no rhythm yet. Only ate once today, no working out, no running--the streets are filled with clumpy snow. Too many chips! Gotta start getting healthy--tomorrow! Enjoying some down time right now.
The DVDs I mailed from Taylors Falls for the GLOW show here have all been lost. Really crappy. It looks like some of those artists won't be able to be included in the program. What do you do? That really sucks. But, we'll fix what we can. Hopefully, there will be a second installment in the spring and we'll be able to have them in that batch. We'll see!
Went to White Trash Fast Food with my pals Julian and Artemis last night and ate a burger, drank white wine and smoked a couple cigarettes. Then Julian and I came back here and passed the guitar back and forth and drank German champagne. It's funny to be improving as a musician while I am also not caring about improving at all. It's been good to jam and I reckon, we'll work up a short set and see if we can get a show here in 2010.
What else...?
There's a lot more, actually. After I finish editing this job, then I will look at the edits for "Goodbye Montreal" and see what notes the editor made. It's a weird bunch of writing from my blog, edited and repaired, made not so personal, but it's still pretty personal. That's why I need an editor for this one. I just can't tell if it's of any value. I'm sure it's of some value, but maybe not enough to keep working on it. We'll see! Hopefully I will have a feeling about it by the end of the week and can either set it up and send it to Pepper for printing or scrap it.

NY Resolution:
To improve me German. Emailed a Berlin-based instructor earlier today. Maybe I can start this week...? That would be fabulous!
Hung out with Adam, Deb and their friend Anja last night before WTFF. That was fun. We talked about GLOW and watched some videos. We also discussed the unavoidable "Avatar." Oh yes. That is a good and scary movie. Where is all leading us? I wonder.
Okay, my toes are frozen. Time for a bath. No shower here, only a bath tub. A tiny fucking bath tub. What...? Oh yes, that's me. Bye!
